James Noir's Hollywood Crimes review. Classic Game Room presents a CGRundertow review of James Noir's Hollywood Crimes from Ubisoft for the Nintendo 3DS. James Noir's Hollywood Crimes is a puzzle game with a strong whodunit flavor. Think of something like Professor Layton, only weirder. Hollywood Crimes is set in the early 1960s, and the game really nails the feel of its period. It's this serious murder mystery with an obvious noir influence, but it has the style of a You Bet Your Life or What's My Line. That 1960s game show campiness totally comes through here, and the way Hollywood Crimes mixes it into a crime drama is really unique. You're on a popular 1960s game show, and the former champions of that show are being killed one by one. Whoever is doing it is leaving puzzles at the crime scenes, and of course, puzzles play a large role in Hollywood Crimes. This video review features video gameplay footage of James Noir's Hollywood Crimes for the Nintendo 3DS and audio commentary from Classic Game Room's Derek.
